Fans of Sex and the City and Bridget Jones's Diary, and anyone who
loves to date vicariously, will fall in love with Matchbook. In
this irresistible read, America's hippest Matchmaker borrows from
her real-life experiences to create an urban love story about
searching for "The One." When people learn what Samantha Daniels
does for a living, they have to know more: How did she become a
Match-maker? How many matches have led to marriage? How does it
work? Who's her craziest client? And most of all, how can a
Matchmaker be single? Samantha Daniels is unlike any Matchmaker
you've ever heard of. Young, ambitious, and, yes, single, she's the
founder of Samantha's Table, an introduction service that caters to
singles in New York and Los Angeles who are ready to invest
seriously in the task of finding The One. After handpicking their
matches, Daniels works with her clients as their cheerleader,
part-time therapist, dating coach, voice of reason, and closest
confidante as she helps them down the road to happily ever after.
Readers learn how Daniels started her Matchmaking business (How
much do you charge for finding the love of someone's life? How do
you screen out the Undatables?) and get to know the colorful cast
of characters whom she fondly refers to as her "Desperados."
There's Mr. Cheapskate, Miss Manhunt, and Looks Good from Afar Guy.
There's the 39-year-old female corporate exec who wants a husband
yesterday; there's the guy who will only date women worthy of Brad
Pitt; there's the gazillionaire who offers a $60,000 bonus if
Samantha can find him a supermodel wife; there's the very well
endowed woman who's having trouble finding men attracted to her
mind; and a host of others. Will Samantha be able to make them a
match? And more importantly, will this Matchmaker find herself a
match? You would think that meeting hundreds of single men would
make dating a snap, but not even a Matchmaker can avoid the
pitfalls of single life. Readers are introduced to another lively
cast of characters -- the men that Daniels herself dates. Readers
meet the many Not for Me Guys and a few Maybe for Me Guys, to see
that even a celebrated Matchmaker can be a Desperado herself.
Throughout the book, Daniels also offers real dating advice (such
as the most common first-date mistakes and tried-and-true
conversation topics) and secrets of the trade (why September is the
best month for Matchmaking). Like a real-life episode of The
Bachelor, Matchbook is a wild ride through the flirty,
unpredictable world of urban dating, with a wise and witty guide at
the helm. For those who love romance and anyone looking for love,
Matchbook is a perfect match.
